Do I need a visa for Greece from Cambodia?
Discover visa requirements for your trip
Cambodian citizens need a Schengen short-stay (Type C) visa to visit Greece. The standard adult fee is typically €90.
Greece is part of the Schengen Area, so Cambodian travellers must obtain a visa before departure for a tourist stay of up to 90 days within any 180-day period. Applications are lodged with the Greek mission competent for Cambodia or its outsourcing partner. As fees and timelines change, confirm them on the official source.
Do you need a visa?
Yes. Cambodia does not benefit from Schengen visa exemption, so a Type C short-stay visa is required to visit Greece as a tourist, up to 90 days within 180. Greece must be your main destination or your first point of entry into the Schengen Area for the application to fall to Greece.
How and where to apply
Cambodian applicants living in Phnom Penh submit their file to the Greek consulate competent for Cambodia or its outsourcing partner (VFS Global, BLS or TLScontact). As Greece may not have an embassy on the ground, the jurisdiction can be handled by a regional mission (for example in Bangkok): check the correct centre before booking. Submission is by appointment and includes biometric enrolment.
Documents and fees
Prepare a completed Schengen form, a passport (issued within the last 10 years and valid for 3 months beyond your planned return), compliant photos, flight and accommodation bookings, proof of funds, and travel medical insurance covering at least €30,000. The adult visa fee is typically €90, plus any service charge from the outsourcing partner.
Processing and tips
Processing usually takes 15 to 45 days; apply early and no more than 6 months before travel. A consistent file — itinerary, accommodation, funds — reduces the risk of refusal. Also check any health requirement (yellow fever depending on your routing) before entering the Schengen Area.
Common mistakes
Applying to the wrong Schengen country is common: if Greece is your main destination, Greece must process your application. Insufficient travel insurance and weak proof of funds are among the leading reasons for refusal. Finally, do not buy non-refundable tickets before the visa is granted.
